Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Bettany’s face twisted in disbelief. “If you don’t know, don’t make wild guesses! It’s Anthony’s first marriage, not a second one.”

Hannah, with only a partial understanding of what a second marriage meant, replied, “Oh… then what was that marriage certificate they had before?”

They even celebrated with a big family dinner when they received the marriage certificate. It was a special occasion they had deliberately marked.

Bettany patiently explained from the sidelines…

Meanwhile, Gilbert had finished eating but remained seated at the dining table, typing on his phone:

Gilbert: [Guys, there’s something I need to tell you about Anthony… So this morning…]

Anthony glanced at the phone, his gaze immediately warning Gilbert.

Gilbert held the phone and raised an eyebrow, his intentions of blackmail evident.

Suddenly, Anthony lowered his head, and his phone vibrated, indicating a bank notification:

[Dear esteemed user, your account ending in 8888 has received a deposit of 10,000,000 dollars, new balance…]

Gilbert burst into laughter, his eyes squinting.

In the group chat, messages started pouring in:

Edward: [What happened to Anthony this morning? You left us hanging. Watch your back!]

Jonas: [What’s up? Did Anthony disturb someone’s grave? He seems hesitant to spill the beans.]

Max: [What’s wrong with Anthony? Just spill it out!]

Gilbert continued messaging the group:

[This morning, Mom mentioned to Anthony about arranging a wedding ceremony for him and Lisa.]
